Cleaning up the battlefield, Zhang Wei only needs to understand the general number of results, the rest of the things are handed over to Qiu Wei to watch, Zhang Wei rushed over to see Qiu Qingquan, Qiu Qingquan was standing at the mortar company at this time, just now the gunshot, Qiu Qingquan was sent by Zhang Wei The guards learned the general situation, and quickly stabilized the main force of the column, because he was worried that Zhang Wei's preparation battalion was not full of firepower, Qiu Qingquan ordered the mortar company under the chariot battalion to go to support, and ordered the chariot battalion to transfer a platoon of Italian-made CV35 light tanks, The Triple Tank went to take over the mechanized search platoon. Ｘ

The artillery bombardment just now was from the mortar company of the chariot battalion, and Qiu Maniac ordered two rounds of rapid fire, and twenty-four shells flew and smashed into the Japanese position, and now Zhang Wei came over with a cavalry knife and reported the battle situation to Qiu Qingquan.

"Sir, we are fighting with a squadron of Japanese cavalry, look at the number on the body is the cavalry wing of the 14th Division, this squadron has brought a lot of old, weak, sick and disabled, it seems that it is purely accidental to collide with us, I took a company of them, let the German armored vehicles of the mechanized search platoon cover. After fifty minutes of fierce fighting, most of them were killed, some of them hid in green gauze tents, and our troops lost 33 people, 30 wounded, 80 cavalry spears, 70 sabers, and 30 Japanese horses. ”

Qiu Qingquan nodded: "Okay, you killed a squadron in the first battle, which is a good luck, and it is also an encouragement to the morale of the whole column, how about it, is your attack force empty?" Qiu Qingquan first encouraged, and then asked with concern.

The so-called empty establishment refers to the fact that most or all the soldiers in a formation are killed, for example, a squad and a platoon, most of the people are killed or all killed in battle, even if the establishment is empty, at this time the troops have to retreat to replenish and reorganize, Zhang Wei's company with the largest casualties has killed more than 20 people, but basically they are not in the same class and platoon, and it has little impact on combat effectiveness.

"It's okay sir, I don't have time to make up, it's those wounded soldiers, they have to be bandaged well, most of them are lightly injured, let them continue to walk after dealing with them, and if there are a few serious injuries, they have to be dealt with by the field hospital of the column headquarters and then taken with them."

Qiu Qingquan nodded, there was a field hospital of acceptable size in the column headquarters, and there was no problem in leading a seriously wounded soldier forward.

"In addition, this mechanized search platoon also made a meritorious service, if it weren't for the cover of their armored vehicles, our casualties would definitely be much more, and their vehicle-mounted machine gunners, drivers and search infantry combined also killed more than a dozen people, otherwise, let them rest and recuperate, their blood and credit are not small."

"Okay, I'll report it when I go back, and let the light chariots of the chariot battalion replace them later."

"Tank!" Zhang Wei paused for a moment and asked in some surprise.

"That's right, tank, I transferred a platoon of Italian tanks, the car is smaller, it is more convenient to search, and the firepower is weaker, we all call it a gun tank." Qiu Qingquan knew that Zhang Wei was an infantry officer and had never touched a chariot, so he patiently explained to him.

Zhang Wei thought it was T26, but he didn't expect it to be an Italian CV35 tank, the armor of that thing is not much thicker than the armored car of the mechanized search platoon, and there are two eight-millimeter machine guns in the firepower, which is slightly stronger than the armored car.

"Okay, Zhang Wei, let's rest in the whole column, and when we finish cleaning the battlefield, let's continue to move forward, I'll go back to the column headquarters first, and I still need to communicate with the above telegram, and I'll let the herald inform you when we leave!"

Sending Qiu Qingquan away, Zhang Wei did not return to the battlefield after the fierce battle, but went to the third company and the heavy machine gun company that were on guard.

Cheered up the three platoon commanders of the heavy machine gun company, Zhang Wei looked at Zheng Yiqun on the side, the second company of the battle just now, the third company did not fire a shot at all, Zheng Yiqun did his best to organize the third company, on the spot guard, at this time saw Zhang Wei coming, he was quite apprehensive in his heart, he was a little self-blamed, he came to prepare the battalion itself is a bit accidental, plus he knows that although he has fought, but the actual combat experience and command ability is indeed not good, on weekdays in the preparation camp is also walking on thin ice, seeing Zhang Wei walking towards him, subconsciously a little scared.

"Battalion commander, I couldn't stop the brothers just now, I didn't go up!" Zheng Yiqun's ability to speak is a little more, he used to see Zhang Wei speak in a different way, but now he speaks very neatly.

Zhang Wei didn't say anything, and patted Zheng Yiqun: "Okay, the commander of the third company, it's always been like this since you came, we haven't had a good chat, you did the right thing, the second company went up, is it, Mu Chao's decision, originally the order I gave them was to wait for the opportunity, and the order of your third company was to stick to the guard and protect the main force of the column, you did a good job!" ”

"Battalion commander, I feel uncomfortable when I see that the brothers have rushed up and there are so many dead and wounded."

"Your task is to protect the main force of the column and guard on the spot, if you also rush up, and at this time another group of devils come out, what about those anti-aircraft artillery and tank troops behind? Don't always think like this, everyone is tempered from the battlefield, if I think you can't do it, how can I directly make you a company commander. You should do two things now, one is to organize the troops to be on guard, and the other is to help the wounded soldiers of the first and second companies be transferred. ”

Zhang Wei's earnest words can't be said to have completely untied Zheng Yiqun's heart knot, but it also made him have less messy thoughts in his heart, for his identity as an officer, self-confidence is also very important, if Zhang Wei doesn't talk to him, I'm afraid that Zheng Yiqun will be uncertain when he reaches a critical time, and if there is really that day, it will be a bad thing.

Zheng Yiqun nodded, turned around and went to sort out the troops, and arranged to receive the wounded soldiers and trophies from the first and second companies. The lightly wounded soldiers were bandaged and cooked by the military doctors transferred by Qiu Qingquan at the column headquarters, but fortunately, they were all minor wounded, and they still advanced with the troops after a short rest to continue fighting, while the seriously wounded soldiers and soldiers who could not continue the battle were transferred to the field hospital at the column headquarters with the assistance of the soldiers of the third company, where the cars of the column headquarters pulled the seriously wounded soldiers.

The soldiers of the 1st and 2nd companies retreated and sat down on the ground to rest, and the 3rd Company and the machine gun company took up the task of guarding, and all the captured cavalry guns and sabers were tied with belts removed from the Japanese corpses, and carried by the soldiers of the 3rd Company to the cars of the column headquarters, and the captured goods were all evidence of the future annihilation of the enemy.

"Battalion commander, battalion commander, there are more than thirty horses here!" He Kun led a group of captured Oriental horses and walked over happily.

", isn't this Deputy Company Commander He, he looks good after being promoted, and he rushed very far forward when he attacked just now!" Zhang Wei joked with a smile.

He Kun smiled: "Don't dare, don't dare, without you, our surname He is nothing." ”

After speaking, he patted the Oriental horse behind him, and there were soldiers leading behind him, a total of more than thirty horses.

"What about these horses?"

Zhang Wei looked at these horses, all of them were serious Oriental horses, tall and big, docile tempered, the guns were so fierce just now, and there were not many people who scared away and ran away.

Zhang Wei pondered, his heavy machine gun company did not have pack horses yet, and it was all up to each squad to carry their own guns, and if they continued for a long time, their physical strength could not hold up, so it was better to keep them as pack horses for machine gun companies.

"Leave twenty horses to be pack horses for the heavy machine gun company, let them carry the machine guns and ammunition, and send the rest, together with the captured guns, to the column headquarters." r
